PC Spec. To Check Out

[geeksarebeta]

Hey guys, second attempt at a spec. Have bene and thought long and hard about what I want, I have selected a good processor with ultiple threads for parallel analysis, as well as a high level of RAM at a speed appropriate to the processor. To CPU speed is lower by choise for robustness, I'm looking for stable analysis, not high frame rate violence in games after all.

Graphics card is small fr now, the software is not graphics intensive, just need basic 3D rendering for CAD so 1Gb is enough, may upgrade in future to a card with many CUDA cores.

Opinions quickly please, ordering today!

Spec above is ordered, didn't make any changes to the spec.

Need to wait now for it to be built and then probably dropped by a courier!

N.B. RAM quantity is due to mathematical analysis, I have already blown through 16Gb with MATLAB.

Looks good. At least it is DPD delivering, so hopefully you will be OK. I always think it would be a good idea for some companies to boost their image by stating: "We never use Yodel."

One thing I would suggest though - up the warranty to Silver - its only a fiver and means that collect and return is covered for any warranty repairs for a year instead of a month - hopefully you shouldn't need it so its a bit of peace of mind if nothing else.
